Un-honoured Trades

[Bongchitis]

....as described.

3 months, several PM's, with replys of "send it tomorow"....and still nothing.

What have been other peoples recourse, I am reluctant to cop it on the chin.

Cheers..............Bongchitis

Depends on the trade.

I personally am a terrible trader at certain times, I have been known to take a month or two to get an item off.

If this thread doesn't work, then you could probably ask one of the mods to mediate the situation (in private).

Thanks for not outing the person in an angry (and useless) thread.

Bit of a shame but it's happened to me too. Unlike you I haven't had a response to a pm though.

yeah somtimes im shocking, especially around exams. I normally wait till I have 2 or three orders/trades to send.

3 months is a bit over the top though.

yeah, get a mod to help out. failing that, bad traders in my opinion should be named (after all other avenues have been explored) to protect others.

3 months is a bit over the top though.

what about 2 years involving exxy item?

thats pretty wack pen, that trader should be held accountable !!!

seriously , why bother trading if ur not prepared to send the goods??

thats just wrong in every sense of the word, and i guess repeat offenders should be made known so no one else gets sucked in.

Thanks for the advice, I may need a mods help soon but I will leave this up for another couple of weeks in the hope that the individual is reminded and acts on his own accord.

I know this person is busy, and also well respected from what I can tell, so I am thinking there may be some roadblocks in the way but I just want the truth.....or cacti, whatever is manageable....no hard feelings!

I too have taken a long time for a trade but it was a little more complex than chucking a cactus in a box and I tried to keep the recipient up to date........that is all one can do.

2 years for an exxy item and still waiting??????? I feel kind of petty but it is a matter of principle now.

Anyway, I will wait and see, they haven't been active here for 10 days.

The trade is now complete, was actually in transit whilst i was writting my last post so I should have been more patient I guess.

Thanks for the advice to those who gave it and thanks for the cacti to the one who sent it, was in lovely condition and exceeded my expectations.

Cheers all....................Bongchitis

Just blacklist that person in your mind, avoid further trading.
